HOMES FOR WORKINGMEN.

AS the problem of furnishing cheap
homes for workingmen is one of
immediate interest to the people of
this city, description of the
"Improved Dwellings" in Brooklyn
may be of some value. The Improved
Dwellings" consist Of several blocks
which were built in the belief that they
were to solve the problem of cheap
MONIES for workingmen. In the last
humber Of The Epoch there is
Published an interesting article from

of the Improved Dwellings," system,
in which he explains the construction
Of the buildings and their adaptability

SPARKS LAND RECORD.

While the land decisions of Commits
SiOner SPARKS may have worked hard
ship in some eases, it is undeniable that
his efforts have been directed by con-
scientiOuS regard for the interests of the
government and the people, and have
led To the frustrating of many attempts
TO secure land illegally. The latest ac-
ton of the land commissioner, through
which some 25.000,000 acres are restored
to settlement. is a sufficient indication
otthe honesty of his purposes. and will
go far toward reconclling those who
have been honestly Directing to his
course with his administration of the
land Office Nor is any injustice done
the railroads by the restoration of these
lands which were withdrawn, some
of them. thirty years ago from settle
ment.
The railroads have had no right or
title to them. They have simply been
able to prevent their settlement
while they were choosing their granted
and indemnity lands. The roads are en-
titled to the grants which congress voted
them, and the governments obligations
III that respect should be vigorously met,
whatever question may exist as to the
wisdom of making the grants in the
first place. But the railroads are not
entitled to a single acre more than their
just due, and it has been lax admins
tratiOn of the land laws which has for so
long permitted the withdrawal of lands
which should have been free to the set
tier to locate upon should he desire.
SPARKS efforts and sympathies have
always been on the side of the people as
opposed to corporations, and the abuse
which has been poured upon his head
should now be varied by extending to
him the credit which is justly his.

The Fishery Question.

LONDON, May 23.-In the commons
this afternoon Sir James FERGUSON,
parliamentary secretary for the foreign
office, intimated that no reply had been
received from the United States govern
ment to Lord Salisbury's dispatch of
March "a, in relation to the fisheries
dispute. Similar measures, he said,
would be adopted for the approaching
fisheries season as were in force last
season. The government would use
their powers with moderation, and
hoped the United States vessels would
avoid making it necessary to call them
into reouiSitiOn.

DISTINGUISHED RARIEs.

st. Paul real estate is a desirable
thing to have, particularly when it costs
the happy possessor nothing. That is a
self-evident proposition, and it is just as
evident to the law makers and states
men OF the country as it is TO very res
ident of the Northwest's metropolis.
Secretary and Mrs. WHITNEY, Senator
and Mrs. CAMERON evidently appre-
ciate the fact, too, as will be seen by
reference to another column. Their
babies have entered the competition for
the GLOBE lot.
These distinguished babies take part
in the contest with many score others,
and we are glad to welcome them; but
their chances are no better than the
humblest baby on the list. Should
either of them win the mag
nificent lot which awaits some lucky
infant, the GLOBE will extend the
assurance of its distinguished consid-
Grafton and the title deed very cheer
fully, but, frankly, it would give us
greater pleasure to see the lot secured
by some Western babe not born with a
silver or golden spoon in its mouth.
However, all shall be treated fairly, and
may luck go with the lot, whoever
wins it.
Still we can not help hoping that, rich
or poor, the winner of the prize will be
girl baby.

The Handsomest in the World.

Winnebago City Press News.
This week, for the first time, Mrs.
Langtry, said to be the handsomest
woman in the world, will appear at the
opera house in st. Paul in series of

the Accomplishments of star actress.
However, She rakes i'll the shekels, and
